Goodnight

Alone
But not lonely
Home
But not homely
Tired
But not present
Here
But irreverent

I don't get it
Maybe I won't
I feel stuck
And I don't
Know how to move from here

Adding fuel to the fire
Doesn't really make it bigger anymore
It just sits
And I just stare
And worrying for a while
Doesn't seem to trigger anymore
I'm just a kid
And it's just unfair

And it's just a fire

And it will just keep burning
Till it's done
There is no winning
If there was, the fire already won
But there isn't
And I didn't
Make the fire
But I want to let it happen
Some things need to burn

I need a ragnarock
I need to shock
My system
Into something that glistens

And kittens
Are so soft
And I am not
And that is not a bad thing
I am just different

And so so very tired

Why to I always write
When it is late
And I don't think right

I want to promise that I am a better writer than this

But I don't know if I am

...
What bliss
To not know
To go
To grow

To slow

To sleep
I need
To breathe

I concede

I am done

It's time

For bed.




Stupid thoughts
In my stupid head
Just won't quit

So I'm stuck with this

Until I give in

And sleep

Eh that's stupid

I choose to sleep
Because it's good for me
And I'll be happy and warm in bed
And thoughts in my head
Aren't stupid
They just exist

I just exist
And I can sleep while doing that

So goodnight.
I hope you also sleep alright
Whoever and wherever
And whenever
You are

I hope you sleep well next time you do
And right now
I hope I do to
